Well, National Frog Month is observed in April and is the month dedicated to these cute amphibians, the frogs. Unlike other animals, not all of us love frogs obviously with their look, appearance, and especially the croak-croak sound. Frogs are amphibian creatures found both on land and water. They are found to be predators and are playing a vital role in maintaining the environment throughout its lifetime. They have been valued as food by humans, and also have many cultural roles including literature, symbolism, and religion. But in recent years, frogs have been threatened with extinction for numerous reasons. There were approximately about 6,000 known species of frog found of which 4,800 recorded frog types were found worldwide except Antarctica. But in the past decade, approximately 170 species of frogs have become extinct. People and various organizations are using this awareness Month to focus on the universal decline in the population in locations across the world. We can also choose to celebrate them because they represent a symbol of transition, the leap from one thing, place, situation to another. Regardless of your reasons, keep in mind that these little creatures also on occasion need x-rays and when they do, Z&Z Medical has a vast array of positioning accessories and markers to assist you in your imaging needs.
